With the sun higher than I would have liked, Li at last sat back and sighed in contentment. “You must eat, little Ly’Tana,” he chided gently. “Or you will not have the strength to lead your tribe. Clan Chiefs must be strong.”

Though Li’s wives worked industriously to feed my band of warriors, wolves and a famished griffin, I only nibbled on a small hunk of cheese and a crust of bread. My gut roiled, needing not food but answers.

“Forgive me, dear Li,” I replied, clasping his brown hand. “Please thank your wives for me, though I fear my appetite has fled. Until I know who is trying to kill me, then what good is food?”

“You are quite right.”

Li stood up and in his own dialect, courteously thanked his wives for their meal. They smiled and bowed, not just to their husband but to me as well. I curtseyed politely. I gestured toward the happy wolves and a satisfied Bar. “Thank you, your graces, for seeing to the needs of my folk.”

Li translated, bringing wider smiles and chatter in their language that blew right past me. I clapped my palms together in front of my chest and bowed to them. “May your gods favor you with good fortune and many children.”

Again, Li translated, his own grin open. His wives all but prostrate themselves at my feet, bowing and trying to imitate my curtsey. Baffled, I curtseyed again, wondering how long this would continue. Rygel stepped up to my ear.

“You just blessed them, Princess,” he murmured. “They think even more highly of you for having done so. Not many guests go so far as to bless them.”

“Just get us on the road to the monk,” I snapped under my breath, returning yet another curtsey to the happy women.

Fortunately, Rygel knew the intricacies of tribal appreciation. Halting, he spoke in their language, and gestured toward me. Li’s veiled and robed ladies nodded, their dark eyes shifting between Rygel, me and all the others in our party. With Li nodding to whatever it was Rygel said, Rygel managed to bring them to helpless giggles and go-away gestures. The pair laughed to each other and returned to their work of governing the servants into clearing the meal and the skeletal remains of ten sheep.

Li grinned. “Your healer has a gift of language,” he commented, steering me toward Mikk with his hand to my elbow. “He has charmed my women.”

I cast a glance over my shoulder. “Yes,” I replied. “He has some very interesting talents.”

I set Tuatha on the pommel of my saddle. Grabbing a double handful of thick black mane, I vaulted onto Mikk’s broad back. Li swiftly mounted his own small grey while Kel’Ratan, Corwyn, Left, and Right swung into their saddles. Rygel picked Arianne up by the waist, setting her onto Rufus before vaulting aboard Shardon.

My loyal three surrounded me; Silverruff on my right, Thunder on my left, and Digger beside Mikk’s head. I frowned, gazing at them. I glanced back at all the wolves: Nahar, White Fang, Little Bull, Dire and Lightfoot.
